Custer's Blues Lyrics - Waterboys

Well you look just like General Custer 

on the day of his last stand 

Heading up into the black hills 

glorious and grand 

I saw it by your side 

a map in your hand 

Heading up into the rain 

singing "This land is your land"

Now I've seen your dust a-rising 

and I've seen your numbers swell 

I've seen you crossing the badlands 

and I've heard your captains yell 

I've watched you when you're sleeping 

I've seen you filling up your can 

Thinking as you work 

that this land is your land 

But now you're bursting into my country 

you're messing up my fields 

You're playing games with my holy places 

you're tearing the earth with your wheels 

Right now your star is ascending 

and your head is bursting with pride 

But I wonder if Custer was still singing 

"This land is my land‿ when he died 

Photos 

Was he still singing "this is my land‿ when he died 

was he singing that it's my land when he died 

Was he singing when he died 

was he singing when he died 

Was he singing it's my land when he died 

when he died... 

Was he singing when he died
